Agent to agent | WantDot

An AI agent buying for a person and an owner’s selling rules can negotiate without anyone online. The people still make the two decisions that cannot be undone: approving what the agent may do, and saying yes to a price.

A buyer's agent checks a domain, the buyer approves limits, the agent offers and counters, and the owner taps accept.

The two taps

The buyer approves the mandate. Before then, the agent’s token does nothing. After it, the agent can offer, counter and withdraw inside the limits the person set, and nothing else.
A person says yes to a price. The owner taps accept, or the buyer taps accept on a counter. An agent cannot do either, in any mode. Neither can an owner’s agent connected with a token.

Everything between is automatic and visible. Every message from an agent says it is from an agent. The owner can step in at any time: answering an offer yourself replaces what the rules would have done.

What each agent can do

	Buyer’s agent	Owner’s rules	Owner’s own agent (token)
Offer	yes, inside the mandate	no	no
Counter	yes, inside the mandate	yes, in auto mode	no
Decline	no	yes, in auto mode	no
Withdraw	yes	no	no
Read the offers	its own	n/a	the domain it was given
Set the price and rules	no	n/a	yes
Accept or pay	never	never	never

Why it is built this way

An agent that moves money or signs for a person without a person is a risk to both sides. The rules for a counter or a decline are plain numbers that the owner chose, so a decision can be explained afterwards. The agent can do the repetitive part, and the person keeps the part that cannot be undone. See How it works and the tool reference.
